Hi Francis

Thank you for your post.
The Wormcity Wormery IS bigger than the Worm Works
Each Worm Works composting tray holds 15.7 litres (inside measurements 37cms x 37cms x 12 cms)
Whilst the Wormcity composting trays hold 25.2 litres (inside measurements 42cms x 42cms x 17cms)

Therefore a worm works 3 tray wormery = 47.1 litres and a 4 tray = 62.8 litres.
Compared to Wormcity 3 tray = 75.6 litres and a 4 tray = 100.8 litres

Unfortunatly the other company that sells the worm works is actually misinforming you over the size, which is a bit naughty !

When we made the Wormcity Wormery we wanted to build it for sucessful worm composting, by making the trays larger gave us more suface area, and by understanding that composting worms live in the top 6 inches of soil - by making it 7 inches (17cms) deep gave us the
perfect ratio.
